MATH PLACEMENT TESTING

Before you request Math placement, you must be enrolled at Bellevue Community College. If you are not enrolled, we cannot give you an assessment test or enter your assessment on the computer. For more information about enrollment, click on Registration in the menu to your left.

Assessment at a Distance

While it is preferred that assessment for math classes take place on campus, in certain cases it is available at a distance. Information can be obtained directly from the Distance Education Office at (425) 564-2438, toll free via 1-877-641-2712, or via e-mail to liz.anderson@bellevuecollege.edu

The assessment instrument is available in hard copy and must be administered by an approved proctor provided by the student and validated by the BCC Distance Education Office. The Distance Education Office will forward the exam to the proctor and provide a return envelope for the completed exam; all proctoring fees are the sole responsibility of the student. There is a $15.00 processing fee levied by Bellevue Community College. This fee must be paid prior to registration for classes.

The Distance Education Office will forward the assessment instrument to the Math Department faculty who will evaluate the work and assign the appropriate level of classes. Please plan well in advance, as this process is time consuming, and there are no guarantees of class availability for Distance Education students.
